Good News, Bad News

By 45 Comments

Good News: I’ve got all four dozen of my cupcakes baked already. Two dozen of these, one dozen of these, and one dozen of these.

Bad News: I’ve only got one dozen of them frosted and I can already tell that I’m going to run out of confectioners’ sugar. I swear…I cannot get through a recipe without missing or running out of something.

Good News: Jay sent me a message earlier today telling me about how there’s a free cat adoption this weekend nearby(!!!).

Bad News: He then proceeded to tell me that he didn’t think it’d be a good idea for us to go and get one. On some level, I do agree with him, but seriously? Such a tease. Then again, I wonder how Cody would feel about it?

Good News: I got my second round of breakfast at lunch time today.

Cereal was sounding SO good by the time noon rolled around today so I just went with it. Paired with lots of fresh blueberries and raspberries? Heaven.

Bad News: I’ve had a killer headache all afternoon and still can’t tell if I am, in fact, getting a cold. It’s that whole “weird feeling” toward the back of my throat thing, that tends to happen right before a cold sets in. Keeping my fingers crossed that it’s just a fluke!

Good News: I’ve got last night’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy on DVR and have every intention of laying down to watch it as soon as I finish up my last training plan for today. Ohhhh yeeeeeahhh.

Question for the Afternoon:

What’s your good news/bad news today?

    Put a clove of garlic in the side of your mouth (peeled) for 20-30 minutes...) it help kill whatever it is off before it gets worse!!! Goodness...I had quite a productive day...Bad news...I did way to much impulse shopping online and spent a fortune!

    Those cupcakes look delicious! I think Cody would do well with another cat; male cats usually handle new "friends" much better than female cats, I think you should go for it ;] You're going to love that episode of Grey's; so intense and so unexpected :D Enjoy!

    Courtney! Have you ever thought about opening up your own bakery? You seem to have a good amount of customers to keep you busy and I am sure that you could come up with some awesome recipes! Have a great weekend!

      I have, actually! But ultimately, I don't want to lose the "fun" aspect of it, which i think could happen. I'm very content doing them on the side whenever someone asks :)

    Hate when I run out of a needed ingredient while I'm in the process of baking or cooking. It's seriously such a fail!! I'm sorry about your headache girl. I sure hope it goes away soon. Good news: That my day is about over, and i'm that much closer to enjoying another chocolate cherry protein smoothie for breakfast. Ha Ha :)

    I have the same weird throat, headache thing today. I'm thinking it must be the change in season? Hopefully! I'm so excited to watch Grey's, I'm planning on sitting down on the couch in a few hours now! The season finale left me on edge!

    Good news: It's the weekend!! Bad news: Looks like it's going to be rainy...but maybe that will turn into good news if I can lounge around and be lazy all weekend? :) Have a great weekend, Courtney!

    I've got that whole throat thing going on too! I really thought I missed this round, but it would appear the stinking cold is about to get me. Good news is my mom shipped Lou Malnati's spinach pizza to me for my bday and its waiting at home for me!

    aww you should get Cody a friend! We weren't sure how my cat Jack would be with our other cat Mimi, but he LOVED her right away :D they're boyfriend/girlfriend ;)

    If Cody's always been on his own, he could go either way, really. But I've read in a few places that if you have an older male cat, it's best to introduce a female as two males could (possibly) struggle for dominance. My Bad News for today: about a million things just got "prioritized" at work and there just aren't enough hours in the day! Good news: I'm getting my hair cut in an hour AND we're heading out tonight to shop for stuff our new condo!!

    Awww - go for the adoption! The shelters are so over packed right now. And once you've already committed to one cat, a second one really isn't all that much more work. We adopted our first cat in October & we ended up getting her a friend in February. My boyfriend & I both work all day & she would easily be home alone for 10 - 12 hours a day. She did A LOT of chewing when she was younger, too - like everything. Wires (scary), boxes, shoes, you name it. After we brought her sister home, the chewing stopped! I know it sounds like we adopted a second cat just for her, but we truly adopted her for us, too, and we love them both! I hope the hubby changes his mind, there's so many pets who need a loving home! Cody will probably dislike it for a week or two, but I'm guessing they'll warm up to each other :)

    Good news... um, I got a manicure? Bad news... um my weekend is going to be crazy and jam packed. No fun. I've been nursing a cold since last Sat. I thought it was allergies, but now I know it's a cold. Only meds. we had were Claritan (didn't help) and my let me get you something since you're working got me a generic kind for sinus pressure. Not what I wanted or needed. Will be hitting CVS later to get the right kind. Enjoy your weekend!
